der8auer achieves a world record 5.8GHz overclock on AMD's Ryzen 1800X

This overclock was achieved with a multiplier of 130.4 and a multiplier of 44.5, confirming that AMD's Ryzen CPUs do support bus speed overclocking, which is a feature that is currently missing from some AMD AM4 motherboards.

These are the early days of Ryzen overclocking, with our own overclocked results coming with less than 48 hours with the CPU and with early motherboard BIOS releases. In time with BIOS updates and extensive tweaking we hope to produce an AMD Ryzen overclocking guide,

In time with BIOS updates and extensive tweaking, we hope to produce an AMD Ryzen overclocking guide, which should help consumers achieve the best performance out of their CPUs. This will take some time so please bear with us as we work with Ryzen on additional motherboards and with more mature BIOS releases.

He also delidded that chip. It appears delidding is essential to high overclocks with Ryzen. TTL even kinda proved this with his review. Those temps were pretty toasty. If a proper 240mm AIO can't cool this thing, a custom loop won't fare any better. Delidding also looks to be a scarier proposition with this thing due to how it's layed out. Still damn cool to see people push it! Even if the single core "gaming" performance isn't quite there yet, Ryzen is a hit in my books, and should ignite Intel into some serious competition, which bodes well for all of us.Quote

He delidded to show that there was no need for ryzen, its solder. Pitting Liquid metal would give worse result then leaving it as it comesQuote
